[NSRCA-discussion] 3M 170 bearings

[Rcmaster199 at aol.com]

Hey I just bought some 'Lectric Shtuff and this is an excellent tip, thanks  
Ron. I think the Lithium grease, especially the Marine Grade, will also work  
wonders in the 'Lectric Plugs. All them sparks when the bat'ry is plugged in  
makes the gold plating disappear. The Lithium Grease will take care of 
that!!!!  I can't wait

I conduct monthly  lubrication of all my speed controls.  Since I use 
lithium polymer  batteries exclusively, I use marine grade lithium 
grease applied with an  aerosol can.  Regular lubrication significantly 
reduces bearing wear  and virtually eliminates the requirement to change 
the bearings in a speed  control.  In fact, I have never changed the 
bearings in any of my  speed controls.
